god this sort of statistic makes me worried and pessimistic for the future.
"As of mid-November, nearly 15% of [U.S.] adults and more than 5% of children received the latest updated COVID-19 vaccine"

i know it's no longer so easy to get it, access can be tricky and scheduling can be a hassle, but please get your covid vaccination as soon as possible if you haven't already! understand that because of how shit the response was in the first three years, that we're essentially now living with it for the indefinite future. it's not a booster, it's a new vaccine that we will have to take yearly, just like the flu vaccine. along with masking, testing, and other precautions, it should be part of a health repertoire that becomes habit.
it's still free through the bridge access program, so if your local pharmacy still makes excuses, assertively press them to give it out for free.

care for yourself, care for others -- get vaccinated, wear a mask!
